Diljit Dosanjh became the first Indian and Punjabi artist to perform at the Latin Grammys, taking the stage at the 27th edition in Las Vegas, USA on November 12 2026. He joined Puerto Rican rapper Daddy Yankee – who was honoured as Person of the Year 2026 at the ceremony, and is best known for the 2004 hit “Gasolina”, and his feature on the 2017 track “Despacito”. Dosanjh’s appearance was a part of Daddy Yankee’s eleven-song medley performance, also featuring Puerto Rican singer Luis Fonsi and Canadian rapper Snow.
The pair performed their collaboration “Pokito” alongside a troupe of bhangra and reggaeton dancers, with Dosanjh calling out his signature “Punjabi Aa Gaye Grammy Oye!”. Before the performance, Daddy Yankee thanked Dosanjh for the collaboration. “Reggaeton and Punjab are like cousins,” he said. “I love when these cultures collide, that’s the point of making music.”
Backstage, the Indian artist met American rapper-actor LL Cool J, Colombian singer Feid, Argentinian producer Bizarrap, and more.
The appearance comes shortly after the announcement of Dosanjh’s return to Coachella in 2027, and in the middle of the India leg of his AURA World Tour.
